Our adventure today was a drive through the Cathedral Valley in Capitol Reef. It is a 55 mile loop through the northern part of the Park; it's a high-clearance dirt road (took us about 7 hours). The road begins with crossing the Fremont River and then travels through desert in the Valley. We don't have a picture of the river crossing, because we discovered that camera wasn't working just as we stopped at the river (turned out to be only a battery problem, whew). Great drive, but we are always ready to quit jostling around in the jeep and sack out in the motorhome.
